Mutation Details for c.409delC

cDNA Name c.409delC 
Protein Name p.Leu137SerfsX16 
Exon or Intron exon 4 
Legacy Exon or Intron exon 4 
Legacy Name 541delC 
Other Details This frameshift mutation is in exon 4 in two CF chromosomes. In both patients the deletion is associated with haplotype B; one patient inherited it from his mother; the other one from his father. Both patients originate from Lombardy, carry the [delta]F508 mutation on the other chromosome and have severe pancreatic deficiency. The mutation (the deletion of C at 541) has not been foun in 58 other non-[delta]F508 Italian CF chromosomes and 20 normal chromosomes tested.
